One of the flagship events we attend every year to connect with our partners and customers is Acumatica Summit. This year’s event took place from January 23-28, 2022 at the beautiful Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas. As a Premier Sponsor, we brought our team out in full force to showcase REPAY's integrated payments for Acumatica and commitment to the Acumatica community.
Highlights from this year’s event can be broken down into the five "P"'s: from praise to prizes, press to parties, and of course...payments!
Praise
Our team members received pretty high honors for their efforts in the Acumatica community over the past year:
Liz Anderson was named an Acumatica Partner MVP for 2022, and Robert Waite, Acumatica's 2021 Developer of the year, was named an Acumatica Developer MVP for 2022 for the third year in a row! These designations are given to a select few members of the community who go the extra mile to help others in the Acumatica community succeed. Read more about the MVP Awards and see the full list of MVPs. Way to go, Robert and Liz!
Robert’s team won 3rd place in the Hackathon, where he and his fellow members of Team Kappa worked into the wee hours to create a process to automate the creation of custom database tables without developers having to add any database scripts to the customization project. Read more about the exciting innovations that happened at the Hackathon.

Another team member who was recognized at Summit was Ammah Billington, who was honored as an acu-connect Top Connector. This award was presented to Ammah by acu-connect, an independent community for Acumatica users, partners, and ISVs that Ammah has been volunteering her efforts with for several years now.

Press
Our Executive Vice President, Darin Horrocks, was invited to be interviewed by Tim Rodman of AUG Forums LLC where he talked with Tim live from the Acumatica Summit Marketplace in Las Vegas about his experience at Summit and his current viewpoints of AR & AP processes. If you were not able to make it to Summit, watch the ~15-minute chat, and feel the energy from the Expo floor:
The team also caught up with our friends at Enterprise Software Podcast who were recording podcast interviews on-site and invited REPAY team members Candra Rader and Spencer Horrocks to talk about how REPAY helps Acumatica users modernize and digitize their payment processes, both for AP Vendor Payments and for AR (Credit Card and ACH). You can listen to part one of their annual Acumatica Summit podcast which includes Candra and Spencer’s interview here.

Parties
Thank you to everyone who came out to our Summit After Dark 2022 event at La Cave in the Wynn, which we co-hosted with BigCommerce, SPS Commerce, and ShipStation! We had a great turnout - good fun and good food was had by all!
Payments!
The theme of our conversations at Summit this year was “Why AR & AR Payments Are Better Together" with REPAY. Legacy processes often hold organizations back, and unfortunately for many firms, this isn’t just a hypothetical—it is the reality of having accounts receivable (AR) and accounts payable (AP) workflows that lack the modernization, digitization, and efficiency businesses deserve.
REPAY provides an all-in-one payments solution for Acumatica users that helps businesses accept and make payments, anywhere, anytime. Accelerate the AP and AR payment flow with Integrated B2B Payments from REPAY today!
